Quotes from a legend

Just now I was browsing around on the internet, trying to figure out what my next submission should be on the blog. I wanted something informative and something that helps beginners, I thought that some quotes from legendary investor Warren Buffett would actually be more useful than some nooby explanation of some indicators. (of course, those nooby explanations will arrive - sooner or later)

You can check the quotes here.

Investor Entertainment: Wall Street (Movie)

I've decided to add some entertainment to the endless flood of information, and recommend a great movie: Wall Street.

The story is about a young Charlie Sheen who wants to live the life of the rich and the powerful, and is ready to do anything to get there. He meets Gordon Gekko, played by Michael Douglas, a powerful business mogul, who decides to take the boy under his wings, and teach him the tricks of the trade.

It was made in 1987, but it's still very entertaining, and a must-see if you're thinking about investing and trying forex. Not because it's full of facts, but because you'll feel awesome when you sit down to trade.

Well, enjoy!

Introduction

Hello everyone!

Welcome to forexnoob, an idea for a personal journal/blog of sorts, where I dive into the fairly intimidating world of forex and investments.

My main reason to start this blog wasn't to educate others, but rather to educate myself. As the title suggests, I'm a complete noob at anything forex and investments, and this blog is some sort of 'challenge' for me. I will force myself to learn a bit each day about the world of investments, and then write what I've learned down in my 'journal', which is basically, the blog.

If you decide to join me, and follow my progress, you'll see that reading my blog will surely pay off in the future. All you have to do is check my blog once or twice a day, and see what I've discovered on the internet. You will not have to research stuff for hours, you can just join me and I will try to explain everything I've learned as simple and 'noob' friendly as possible, because I'm a noob myself.

A lot of sites on the net are really intimidating, to be honest. If you're like me, and just wanted to know a bit more about the world of finance, but then are intimidated by professional sites which use big words that a 'casual' user might not understand on the first visit, then this blog should help you with that.

If you want to be more educated in the world of finance, but do not have the time nor energy to research stuff for hours on the net, you can just check my blog, read some posts, and feel accomplished.

Of course, if you wish to actively educate yourself in forex and investments, you can use the blog as a jumpstart. Read something interesting on the blog that caught your attention, but you want to know more? You can always google things you wish to know more about, and this way you can use your time more effectively.

Keep in mind, that as the title suggests, I am not a professional advisor or whatever. I'm a forexnoob, I am a beginner, who has the enthusiasm to spend hours researching some topics on the internet, and then share the results on this blog.

I hope you'll find the blog useful ( I sure will! )
